For more than a century, the Shelter House at Riverside Park in Independence, Kansas has been part of the community. Constructed in 1916, it's an incredible piece of local history that's been around for over 100 years and, up until recently, still had its original clay tile roof system installed.

In August, we were honored to partner with the City of Independence and the local Historical Society to replace the aging roof system and help insure the Shelter House remains part of Independence for generations to come.

This project required more than simply installing a new roof. Historical preservation demands a different approach—balancing long-term performance, preservation of the character and history of the building, and responsible use of the project's budget.

Those are challenges we're proud to take on.

We understand that we're not always just protecting a building. Sometimes, we're protecting a part of the community.

We're grateful for the trust placed in us to help preserve one of Independence's most recognized landmarks.

The Shelter House.

Built to last. Built with purpose. Built for the next 100 years.

Funny thing about rain. If there's a way for it to find its way inside your building, it will. Tricky little bu**er.

Rust forms when iron reacts with oxygen and water; it's called "oxidation" and steel screws hate it. Over time, when they begin to rust they can tear, crack and degrade the roof. Ultimately, it will destroy the watertight integrity of the entire system.

If you see this on the roof of your commercial building, call us.

We know how to fight the rain.

The rain that will blast Kansas City later this week? It actually started as a hurricane in the eastern Pacific over a week ago. Seriously. And we're going to feel its power all the way up here.

Hurricane Polo is one for the record books. It started as a tropical storm off the coast of Mexico and grew into a Category 5 hurricane less than 21 hours later. It's reached Cat 5 intensity on three separate occasions, spent more than 60 hours spinning with sustained wind speeds of 180 mph or more, and is the second-most intense easter Pacific hurricane on record (892 mb).

At the same time, moisture is being pulled up from the Gulf. That means a whole lot of water is headed towards us. Thankfully, it won't look anything like a hurricane. But it will rain. A lot.

This Thursday (Oct. 1) brings widespread rain and repeated rounds of heavy downpours. Most of the KC Metro area can expect 2"-3" of rain, with some areas getting up to 5". So buckle up, friends.

Take advantage of dry daylight hours today and tomorrow to clear out gutters, downspouts and storm drains of any leaves or debris before the heavy rains arrive. And if you notice any roof leaks or water stains forming on your ceilings, you know who to call.

And this video footage? It's from NOAA's Hurricane Hunters inside the eye of Hurricane Polo last week. Just incredible.

Hang it in Louvre.

This home in Overland Park, Kansas had extensive hail damage from one of last month's storms. Working with the homeowner's insurance company, we were able to get a full replacement covered entirely by insurance. And we're not afraid to admit we love the Owens Corning Class 4 shingles in Weathered Wood.

They're true works of art.

To all those who roll up their sleeves and get things done, happy Labor Day Weekend.

Sun-exposed asphalt shingles typically run 50˚— 60˚ above ambient air temperature, with black shingles reaching upwards of 160˚+ during excessive heat waves. Even light-colored shingles can reach temperatures of 145˚ during the summer months.

We strongly recommend enjoying fall drinks when you can enjoy fall temperatures.

Staying busy and staging another home in Overland Park, Kansas for a new roof.

Roofs with sharp angles and steep pitches deliver incredible curb appeal. They give a house unique character and a great sense of style. But they also make the work just as challenging as it is beautiful. More ridge caps, valleys, transitions and changes in elevation mean more details to get right safely. And that's exactly where experience and craftsmanship matter.

It's not always easy, but we can't imagine doing anything else.

Or doing it any other way.

The past few months have taken a real toll on roofs in our region (as you can see from the photos below). But a new roof will last for years to come (and we'll post those photos soon).

Do Your Homework Before They Do The Work

This person took over $500,000 for construction and home remodeling projects without completing (or even beginning) the work.

Stories like this are a good reminder that not every contractor who knocks on your door, hands you a business card, gives you a free estimate or promises a "great deal" deserves your trust.

Before hiring anyone to work on your home, check their references. Verify their licenses and/or registration. Confirm their insurance and make sure you know who you're actually hiring.

In Kansas, roofing contractors are required to register with the Kansas Attorney General's Office. It takes just a few minutes to check, and it could save you thousands of dollars along with a whole lot of headaches.

A good contractor won't be offended when you do your homework. In fact, they'll expect it.

Read the story below and remember when it comes to your home, trust but verify.

The Sedgwick County District Attorney’s Office said a judge sentenced Chad E. Smith to 85 months (seven years, one month) in prison “for a series of financial crimes.”
